You can have different holdback times for different territories. Don't put it on Netflix for a month in the US but put it on right away in the UK where AMC is not available and Breaking Bad does not appear to have a pay network distributor. The bigger issue is the fact that most shows DO have foreign distribution. At the point it's not AMC that's holding it back from Netflix, it's the company that's paid a bunch of money to air it over there. The rights windows in each country can have huge variations just depending on how the contracts are negotiated. It's never as simple as "the US airing network isn't allowing me to see this in the UK because they hate me."
